Identification is tentative, but there were a few birds
that looked awfully short-billed, with the white on the
throat not too extensive.

@WWCA: Tome: Whitfield Wildlife Conservation Area

This is a relatively new facility. It is located on the
west side of NM-47, just over a mile north of its
intersection with NM-309. There is a small building
housing an interpretive center. A quite solid fence with
gates prevented vehicular access when I was there at 4pm
on a Friday, but there is pedestrian access at the south
end of the main road fence that permits one to get about
30 yards closer to the ponds and fields.
